>that guy at the gym who only uses the machines and absolutely never touches a barbell
why do they bother?

>That guy at the gym who uses machines.
my dad starting working out and i am his personal trainer pretty much. i have him on a machine circuit because he weighs 160 pounds at 13% body fat with no muscle.

>>37490822
>that guy who buys whey protein
lol when will they learn - what, does he think he's some kind of top conditioning athlete in a structured trial, with personalized training regimens and diet on top of optimal equipment and does he think he is going to gain that extra eighth-pound of muscle every couple of months because he spends hundreds of dollars on this shit? Does he not realize he's pissing his money away, quite literally, because that's exactly what his kidneys are doing to all that excess protein while getting fucked up wrecked because he doesn't need it?
>that guy who brings a duffel bag to the gym
>>37490822
What is wrong with this? You are lifting the same amount on a incline bench machine as you are using a barbell without the risk of injury.

I legit don't understand people who do anything but free weights, accessories, and calisthenics/BWE.

If you're spending "hundreds of dollars" on WPI you suck dick at shopping around.
Having said that, when you hit the gym 6 days a week like me, it's definitely a worthy investment.
>1 scoop of WPI
>2 cups whole milk
>1 cup plain greek yogurt
>1 banana
>1/4 cup of pistachios
>1 cup of spinach
^God tier post-workout shake, you're welcome.
Having said that, if you're only lifting three days a week then yeah, I'm not sure why you would even bother with it.
>>37490822
ive never seen anyone use the squat rack, even the bench is always empty.. what the fuck my dudes

I like these people. The more your gym has, the better chance of getting a bench or a power rack

You have to go back.
Honestly, that machine guy probably has no idea what he's doing. I've asked a few guys at my gym why they never use free weights and I think they all said they didn't know how. I showed all of them how to bench and squat, and one how to DL. They still do those things. In addition to machines. Don't waste your time explaining programming though. Their eyes glaze over.

hello orungutano
the owner of my gym literally doesn't let anyone new bench or squat with free weighs
says they need to mature their muscles first
>>37492381
that's fucking retarded
>>37492381
lol machines won't do shit for that, he's just a dickhead on roids

Owner of your gym literally doesn't know what the fuck he is doing
>>37492381

>>37492388
owner isn't even very muscly, plus people can use free weighs, just no bench, squat or deadlift

Fucking DYELs man
>>37492404
Does he actually call people out on this shit? Like does he run over from the counter and say "no no, get the fuck off my bench kid. I want to see you on the fly machine for atleast a month".
>>37491481
hello orungutano
>>37492412
says you'll injure yourself if you try to that when starting. I mean, its not a bad idea since everyone that goes there is mostly retarded and WILL end up injured, to bad they also get injured with machines lol

It's all I can afford.. How many siblings do you support because your mother is a drug addled whore and your dad was run off by her and told to stay away because of the courts. But you just can't leave because then your mom will likely whore out your sister for drugs. So you stay in that hell hole to keep them safe. But you have one hour for lunch and planet fitness is right across the block and you can skim just enough it of your paycheck to pay for it hto $10 it costs before you crack whore mother demands your money for "rent" even though the state pays for the housing. You know she's just buying her next few hits..... Fuck you annon you don't know what that place has done for me.
>>37492343
